Yes, that makes sense judging from the URL from Studio. It points the ApplicationDefinition to a repository definition instead of on the filesystem. This was what was confusing me, I was expecting the /slate/ApplicationDefinition.xml to supercede all but instead MapGuide is only using the index.html in the /slate/ folder to assemble the Fusion parts and pieces and then using it's own ApplicationDefinition from the repository.
http://192.168.1.109:8008/mapguide/fusion/templates/mapguide/slate/index.htm l?ApplicationDefinition=Library%3a%2f%2fSamples%2fSheboygan%2fFlexibleLayout s%2fSlate.ApplicationDefinition Whereas this will use the AppDef on the filesystem http://192.168.1.109:8008/mapguide/fusion/templates/mapguide/slate/index.htm l? So, it looks like my objective of having a master ApplicationDefinition on the filesystem that I can globally tweak as needed for that application will not work well when using Studio flexible web layouts. I really wanted the template read every time at run-time by the Studio flexible layout, but that's not how it works. Rather, I will use the file system definition exclusively where I can accomplish what I need. It still looks like I ran into a bug or two with Studio inheriting the parent ApplicationDefinition template definitions when first defining a layout so I will log those issues with Autodesk.

No, that's right - when you use Studio it is using an AppDef stored inside the MapGuide repository, not the one on the file system. When you launch it from Studio, it appends something to the URL to get it to use the AppDef from the repository.
